Dear Dr. Zimmerman,

I read the manual but I didn't understand how Pmin mu and Pmin for
dispatchable loads as well as Pmax for generators are calculated.  The
value of Pmin is different with the value set in the case file.I really
confused. If it is possible please explain, because It is not clear for me
how it has been computed.


Best Regards

Carol Francesca
